Coming Soon: Tazzina Forest Hills

More big news to close out the week for us Forest Hillers:

Celebrity chef Jason Zukas, who won the Chopped competition back in 2009, has chosen Forest Hills for his next restaurant. Here is the website for his other restaurant in Queens. I'm trying to find out the exact location of Tazzina Forest Hills.

Yeah, its an OVERPRICED JOINT with poor food. Why do these folks even bother? They think the clientel is that dumb?

Sorry we are smarter than that. Bann Thai had moderate pricing for what it offered but shut down. :-( I wouldn't be surprised if this takes over the Bann Thai location unfortunately. I was hoping for something really good to replace it that had quality food AND Bann Thai like pricing.

Tazzina isn't something I would be interested in and I sure hope it doesn't move into the Bann Thai location.

Great restaurants don't have to pay the ridiculous rents of Austin Street. They only need to be relatively close to their customer base, who will seek them out, rather than the other way around. Mediocre restaurants, on the other hand, have to be in a prime location to attract customers, usually people who want to be in the "hip" part of town and don't know good food from bad.

i know this is a FH blog, but i passed this place in rego park and went in and spoke to the owner for a min, who's a real nice guy. didnt eat or have a drink b/c it was early but this looks like its a really nice place and a lot cheaper than jack and nellies or keuka kafehttp://www.dnainfo.com/new-york/20130816/rego-park/rego-parks-first-craft-beer-bar-offering-local-suds-free-wi-fi
